Artist Statement

Inspired by the ability of main stream media motion pictures to alter the emotional state of viewers, David Thompson strives to bring this effect into his body of work. His goal is to make his work provocative enough that his viewers will question the content within the work and apply those questions to their physical environment. Playing off of the realities of main stream news stories and societies reactions, he creates imaginary works that tell the possibilities of what is to come with hope to inspire action within communities.

  1. Pretty interesting. I might suggest that you change "imaginary works" to fictitious senarios" it makes it seem like your creating scenes or situations rather than physical things that we imagine (like photos that aren't physically present).
